Finozzi1696 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 http://www.gamespot.com/articles/the-last-guardian-still-in-development-sony-assure/1100-6425341/ The Last Guardian's trademark in the US has been abandoned, but it appears this was due to an administrative error at PlayStation America, as Sony has confirmed to GameSpot that the project is still in development. According to documentation on the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the group sent Sony a notice in July last year, informing that the trademark needed to be extended. Although Sony has, since 2013, habitually extended the game's trademark, it made no action following the most recent request. As such, the trademark was cancelled. However, amid speculation surrounding what this means for the protracted and troubled project, Sony has told GameSpot that it "can confirm that the Last Guardian is still in development". The Last Guardian has now been in development for more than half a decade after being formally announced in 2009, though director Fumito Ueda said his creative contribution to the project was completed a "long time ago." The most recent news surrounding The Last Guardian was revealed in December last year, when Ueda said in an interview that the game was moving forward under "completely new conditions." It's possible Ueda was referring to the game transitioning from PlayStation 3 to PlayStation 4. The Last Guardian was initially announced back in 2009 as a PS3 title, though Sony has dodged questions about platforms ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I hear it's scheduled to be released in the same week as Dr Dre's Detox, the sequel to the bible and the cure for both Aids and cancer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stickaxe Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I was excited by the E3 2009 trailer, and I kept my eye on this for awhile, but at this point I have simply stopped caring. If they release it tomorrow I wouldn't even bother to pick it up. And I don't believe I'm alone here. This is what happens when you get us excited and then leave us hanging for 5+ years. A lot of us have already done our mourning and have moved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Oh, this is still alive? o.O Even SHAFT releasing Kizumonogatari is more plausible than this being released :/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeWarm115 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 It will be launching on PS6 in 2028. This has been my most anticipated game for to long. I bet the whole game will be reworked and changed by release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihiris- Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) It was always a running joke with my friends for years that Final Fantasy Versus XIII and Kingdom Hearts III were going to release before TLG. It's sad that we're gonna be right on that.... Edited February 17, 2015 by Death_Ninja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boooda Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 The community has done more advertising for this game than Sony will ever need to do. Its become an enigma at this point and I'm sure the game will sell gangbusters when it does eventually release. Its actually pretty amazing that this is still talked about however many years later.

I wouldn't be so sure. Just because people are talking about it on the interwebz doesn't mean much. You can find die-hard fans of anything on the internet. Duke Nukem came out...so I believe this will too someday. And look at what happened to that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkthur Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Can't we just get Shadow of the Colossus 2? I really don't care about TLG anymore, like someone said above, let it go better games will come soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazerialus Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Oh, they'll release TLG eventually... around the time the PS9 comes out, and the game will only be about 15 mins long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youthCAT1590 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 I'm keeping the hope alive. I need this game. But if it does indeed get cancelled at some point then I support Arkthur's suggestion for Shadow Of The Colossus 2 since the first is pretty much my favorite game of all time. Hell, I want both.
